Cigar Aficionados

I am a non-smoker, and I need to buy some cigars. They will go appropriately with a gift I bought for a friend. So here is the question...

What are some fashionable/trendy cigars or smokes for ladies???

We have some cigars at the bar that I work at and my favorite ones have been the flavored ones. Mango, by far, is my favorite one. I know a lot of ladies like flavored ones as opposed to the "hardcore" ones we have. We save the Cubans and everything else for the men.

my favorite is Punch.

Check with Tom Earp. I think he owns a smoke shop.

I almost forgot about Tom

. Hopefully he will post in here eventually.
Thanks Sandy. Flavored ones sound great.

Believe it or not this is for a bridal shower gift. I hate buying things directly off a registry for a shower, very impersonal. I don't mind so much for the wedding gift, because I am not there to see them open it anyway. So I saw the couple had registered for a poker table top... bought it, now I have to add my touch to it. Some poker chips, playing cards with good looking men on them, and to top it off... cigars!

Paging Mr. Earp - please pick up the white courtesy phone!

I like H. Uppman's and Partagas brands - fairly mild with nice flavor, not too overwhelming.

Of course, if you get the chance to get a Cuban, it will be so worth it - first cigar I ever had was a Cuban Romeo y Julietta - hooked ever since.

I can't believe I'm admitting this, but I really like chocolate flavored cigars. I got kind of hooked on them summer after freshman year, but GPBoy cut me off when he refused to kiss me after I smoked them. Mind you, I only smoked like once a month, but I wasn't liking that arrangement.

Now I am torn. The flavored ones are a great idea. But I also want to make sure her gift is chic/trendy. I hope flavored ones don't come across as cheap.

*also hoping she invites me to a poker party and we can smok'em, chocolate sounds good

Kristan, flavored ar not cheap unless Swisher Sweet! ETC!

Yes I do have some that are for a ladies taste. Cherry and Cognac! In a metal tin and are not real big. Easier to ship that way!

These are imported and hand rolled! I thjink @ 12.00 for a tin of them!

Nada a thing with ladys smoking Cigars!

Have a bunch!

Shawn, I need to call ya! On Cig for the Chartering!

Flavored cigars?

That just seems so wrong. Shouldn't cigars be... well, cigar-flavored?

I'm not a smoker, but on rare occasion my husband and I will sit out on the deck with a couple of cigars and some cognac. Mmmmm...

Swisher Sweet Perfectos or Black and Milds....perfect when you're drunk.

The Swisher Sweets I can understand. Kristin, only get the Black and Milds if you feel like cleaning up after her. Ugh.

Just picked up a tin of Don Tomas tonight, can't wait to break into them.
